It's not really a backend thing, and we'll want to profile e.g. loading
the backend too, so create it very early and destroy it very late and
let MetaContextMain own it.

Currently, the peripheral "output" setting will be unset if Mutter is
deciding automatically the mapped output of a tablet device. In that
case, gnome-control-center will have a hard time figuring out itself
the better output to show the tablet calibration UI, unless it's hand
held by Mutter.
Add this private D-Bus interface so that gnome-control-center can look
up the output as determined by Mutter to bring the missing harmony
between both. This interface consists of a simple method to get the
mapped output for a input device node.

Mutter can play sounds in some contexts and also provides an API
for libmutter users to do so using libcanberra internally.
In some specific use cases of Mutter, we would like to not depend
on libcanberra and not have any sound playing feature by default.
The changes keeps the sound player API but make it no-op if the
sound_player feature is disabled to not make it possible to break
a gnome-shell build.

It uses the org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Power.Screen D-Bus API. Currently
brightness set if the proxy is not ready are ignored; whether the
brightness value should be cached and set once it appears or whether
color profiles should be reapplied is yet to be decided.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2165>
Just as gsd-color does, generate color profiles. This can either be done
from EFI, if available and the color device is associated with a built
in panel, or from the EDID. If no source for a profile is found, none is
created.
The ICC profiles are also stored on disk so that they can be read by
e.g. colord. The on disk stored profiles will only be used for storing,
not reading the profiles, as the autogenerated ones will no matter what
always be loaded to verify the on disk profiles are up to date. If a on
disk profile is not, it will be replaced. This is so that fixes or
improvements to the profile generation will be made available despite
having run an older version earlier.
After generating, add some metadata about the generated file itself
needed by colord, i.e. file MD5 checksum and the file path.

gsd-color provides this API, which exposes details about the night light
state. Currently, gsd-color also turns this state into CRTC gamma
changes, but this will eventually change, and this is a preparation for
this.
The proxy isn't yet used for anything.

Previously, gsd-color handled adding color devices. It got information
about those via the GnomeRR API, which is part of libgnome-desktop.
libgnome-desktop itself got this information from the
org.gnome.Mutter.DisplayConfig.GetResources() D-Bus method, implemented
by mutter.
Now, mutter itself will add all the monitor color devices itself,
without having to go via gsd-color.
We sometimes need to delete colord devices synchronously, in certain
race conditions when we add and remove devices very quickly (e.g. in
tests). However, we cannot use libcolord's 'sync' API variants, as it
has a nested takes-all main loop as a way to invoke the sync call. This
effectively means we end up sometimes not return from this function in a
timely manner, causing wierd issues.
Instead, create our own sync helper, that uses a separate context that
we temporarly push as the thread-default one.

Create a color manager type that eventually will be the high level
manager of color related behavior, such as ICC profiles and
color "temperature" a.k.a. night light.
For now, it's only an empty shell. It's also constructed by the actual
backend, as at a later point, the X11 and native color management
implementations will differ.

The "single pixel buffer" Wayland protocol extension provides a way for
clients to create 1x1 buffers with a single color, specified by
providing the color channels (red, green and blue) as well as the
alpha channel as a 32 bit unsigned integer.
For now, this is turned into a 1x1 texture. Future potential
improvements is to hook things up to the scanout candidate logic and
turn it into a scanout capable DMA buffer.

This class is meant to hold logic specific to the native backend
in the context of a MetaCompositorView.
Its addition requires making MetaCompositorView inheritable, and an
addition of a virtual function which allows each compositor to create
its own MetaCompositorView instance.
In the case of the MetaCompositorNative, a MetaCompositorViewNative
is created. In all other cases, a MetaCompositorView is created.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2526>
MetaCompositorView is a class which contains compositor logic
specific to ClutterStageViews.
Each MetaCompositorView is "attached" to a ClutterStageView as an
opaque pointer using g_object_set_qdata_full (), and is freed when
the ClutterStageView is destroyed. This ensures that the lifetime of
the MetaCompositorView can't extend beyond the lifetime of its
ClutterStageView.
In a following commit, MetaCompositorView will be expanded to allow
keeping track of the top MetaWindowActor located on each
ClutterStageView.

This launches Xvfb, using xvfb-run, and inside tests the following:
1. Launching 'mutter --x11' works
2. Launching a couple of X11 clients works (doesn't crash or result in
warnings)
3. Launching 'mutter --x11 --replace' works
4. Terminating works
It does this using a simple shell script.

gnome-desktop is used to retrieve the monitor vendor name which in some
use cases is not needed as it brings a bunch of gnome-desktop unwanted
dependencies.
The change makes mutter fallback to an "Undefined" vendor name if it is
built without gnome-desktop

The purpose of MetaRenderDevice is to contain the logics related to a
render device; i.e. e.g. a gbm_device, or an EGLDevice. It's meant to
help abstract away unrelated details from where it's eventually used,
which will be by MetaRendererNative and the MetaOnscreenNative
instances.

To utilize the API provided by libsystemd it would be better to
create a separate HAVE_LIBSYSTEMD configuration option instead of
having to rely on HAVE_NATIVE_BACKEND.
For now this will be utilized for getting the control group of a
MetaWindow.

As with the compositor type enum, also have the X11 display policy enum,
as it's also effectively part of the context configuration. But as with
the compositor type, move it to a header file for enums only, and since
this is a private one, create a private variant meta-enums.h.

This object intends to replace the scattered functions that are used to
make up what is effectively a "mutter context". It takes care of the
command line arguments that is now done in main.c, persistant virtual
monitors, and the like.

This type is intended to replace the scattered functions used to
configure how the Mutter compositor is run. It currently doesn't do
anything, and only has a human readable name, intended to be set to e.g.
"GNOME Shell".
It's an abstract type, and is intended to be used via either a future
`MetaContextMain` for real display server use cases, and a
`MetaContextTest` for test cases.

This practically does the same thing as part of MetaLauncher, except
with added thread safety and caching. For example, opening the same file
a second time will return the same MetaDeviceFile, and only once all
acquired MetaDeviceFile's are released, will the file descriptor be
closed and control of the device released.

This object takes over the functionality of meta-idle-monitor-dbus.c,
meta-idle-monitor.c and meta-backend.c, all related to higher level
management of idle watches etc.
The idle D-Bus API is changed to be initialized by the backend instead
of MetaDisplay, as it's more of a backend functionality than what
MetaDisplay usually deals with.
It also takes over the work of implementing "core" idle monitors. The
singleton API is replaced with thin wrapper functions on the backend.

The new RecordVirtual API creates a virtual monitor, i.e. a region of
the stage that isn't backed by real monitor hardware. It's intended to
be used by e.g. network screens on active sessions, virtual remote
desktop screens when running headless, and scenarios like that.
A major difference between the current Record* API's is that
RecordVirtual relies on PipeWire itself to negotiate the refresh rate
and size, as it can't rely on any existing monitor, for those details.
This also means that the virtual monitor is not created until the stream
negotiation has finished and a virtual monitor resolution has been
determined.

Virtual monitors are monitors that isn't backed by any monitor like
hardware. It would typically be backed by e.g. a remote desktop service,
or a network display.
It is currently only supported by the native backend, and whether the
X11 backend will ever see virtual monitors is an open question. This
rest of this commit message describes how it works under the native
backend.
Each virutal monitor consists of virtualized mode setting components:
* A virtual CRTC mode (MetaCrtcModeVirtual)
* A virtual CRTC (MetaCrtcVirtual)
* A virtual connector (MetaOutputVirtual)
In difference to the corresponding mode setting objects that represents
KMS objects, the virtual ones isn't directly tied to a MetaGpu, other
than the CoglFramebuffer being part of the GPU context of the primary
GPU, which is the case for all monitors no matter what GPU they are
connected to. Part of the reason for this is that a MetaGpu in practice
represents a mode setting device, and its CRTCs and outputs, are all
backed by real mode setting objects, while a virtual monitor is only
backed by a framebuffer that is tied to the primary GPU. Maybe this will
be reevaluated in the future, but since a virtual monitor is not tied to
any GPU currently, so is the case for the virtual mode setting objects.
The native rendering backend, including the cursor renderer, is adapted
to handle the situation where a CRTC does not have a GPU associated with
it; this in practice means that it e.g. will not try to upload HW cursor
buffers when the cursor is only on a virtual monitor. The same applies
to the native renderer, which is made to avoid creating
MetaOnscreenNative for views that are backed by virtual CRTCs, as well
as to avoid trying to mode set on such views.

Currently our only entry point for DRM devices is MetaKms*, but in order
to run without being DRM master, we cannot use /dev/dri/card*, nor can
we be either of the existing MetaKmsImplDevice implementation (legacy
KMS, and atomic KMS), as they both depend on being DRM master.
Thus to handle running without being DRM master (i.e. headless), add a
"dummy" MetaKmsImplDevice implementation, that doesn't do any mode
setting at all, and that switches to operate on the render node, instead
of the card node itself.
This means we still use the same GBM code paths as the regular native
backend paths, except we never make use of any CRTC backed onscreen
framebuffers.
Eventually, this "dummy" MetaKmsImplDevice will be replaced separating
"KMS" device objects from "render" device objects, but that will require
more significant changes. It will, however, be necessary for e.g. going
from being headless, only having access to a render node, to turning
into a real session, with a seat, being DRM master, and having access to
a card node.
This is currently not hooked up, but will be in a later commit.

Add a flag to MetaSeatNative and MetaSeatImpl that tells it not to
attempt to create a libinput context. This is intended to be used when
mutter is to run headless, as in without any input devices other than
virtual ones.
